"It's really you! You're finally here... wuwu..." Li Yajun felt like the taut string in her heart had broken. She suddenly lay down on the windowsill, covering her mouth and burst into tears.
Almost all the previous activities took place at night, which made it difficult for Li Yajun to sleep well and her daily routine disordered. As a result, she is now extremely sensitive and will overreact to the slightest disturbance.
It was precisely because of this that Li Wenxi had just said hello and she had directly aimed her heavy crossbow at the two of them.
She had been on edge, mistaking Xu Xin and Li Wenxi for enemies from other regions. After all, the Explorer had already explained the basic situation on the regional channel, and she already knew they were surrounded by people from other regions.
Now that it was confirmed that they were the explorers, Li Yajun was extremely excited.
"Hey, don't cry. You are the first person we found from the same area, and the fastest one!" Li Wenxi looked up and comforted Li Yajun.
"Hmm...ah, why am I still up there? I'll go down now!" Li Yajun suddenly remembered that she was still in the tree house, so she quickly operated the tree house and got down from it.
Xu Xin and Li Wenxi also rolled off the Silver King.
The girl was slightly shorter than Li Wenxi, about 1.6 meters tall, and had to look up to see the two of them. She was wearing a green-level leather armor set. After descending from the tree house, she shuddered slightly and rubbed her hands.
It seems that the green-level leather armor set is not very warm.
Li Wenxi wore a blue-grade steel armor set, while he wore a purple-grade scale armor set. Even with the cold wind blowing directly at the Silver King's swift pace, neither of them felt cold. It seemed that only blue-grade and above equipment had a built-in warmth-retention effect, while green-grade equipment was more common.
"Are you cold?" Li Wenxi asked with concern.
"I'm fine," Li Yajun no longer cared about the cold. With an expression of excitement and uneasiness on her face, she asked eagerly yet cautiously, "Um, can I... go with you? Are you here to take me away?"
"Of course," Li Wenxi replied. Seeing Li Yajun shivering from the cold, she immediately suggested, "Why don't we go upstairs and talk? You should have a fireplace upstairs, right? We could both warm up!"
Seeing Li Wenxi about to go up, Li Yajun immediately said, "Yes, there's a fireplace! Then I'll take you up there!"
As he spoke, Li Yajun manipulated the roots of the tree house and was about to take the two of them up.
Facing the two Explorers who had saved her life, especially one of them, Xu Xin, the district's top scorer, she completely let down her guard. If they wanted to harm her, her defenses would be useless. At worst, she could just return the life they had saved.
"Um... this wolf?" Li Yajun looked hesitantly at the blood-stained Silver King, which was much larger than an ordinary wolf. "Is this wolf... a mutant beast? Is it going up there too?"
"Ouch!" The Silver King called out to her. His voice was not hostile, but rather gentle, causing her to shudder and then open her eyes wide.
"It... can understand what I say?" Li Yajun looked at the Silver King, unable to take her eyes away.
"This wolf is my mount," Xu Xin touched Silver King's head, "It's called Silver King. It's a friend, not an enemy. It won't hurt you. Take it up with you."
"Oh, okay..." Li Yajun couldn't help but look at the Silver King again, then manipulated the roots and led them into the tree house.
Compared with Xu Xin and Li Wenxi's tree houses, Li Yajun's two-story tree house is much simpler. After all, the area is much smaller and there is less space for things.
Although the screen is on the first floor, perhaps because the low tree house is only three meters high, which is too low and makes people feel insecure, Li Yajun used the first floor as a workshop and storage room, and converted the second floor into a living area.
Although the first floor is only more than 20 square meters, she has kept it tidy. The tables and chairs are neatly placed, and there is a small bed by the window. The fireplace, which almost occupies an entire wall, is burning, emitting a soft red light and the crackling sound of burning wood from time to time, as if it is a warm little home.
There was only one chair here, so she made two more on the spot, and the three of them sat down by the fireplace. The Silver King also crouched down behind Xu Xin and Li Wenxi, warming himself by the fire.
"Your place is really nice, it feels more like a home than my tree house!" Li Wenxi stroked Coco who was still sleeping in his arms, and looked at the little house with a little envy.
She thought her tree house was well designed, but compared to this one, her tree house instantly made her feel like a cheap rental apartment with all kinds of decorations placed randomly.
"Actually, it's designed based on the rooms in my home on Earth. If it weren't designed like this, so I could feel at home, I'd probably collapse..." Li Yajun sighed and explained softly. Her gaze was briefly drawn to Coco in Li Wenxi's arms, but then she looked away. "Um, I..."
"Do you want to touch her?" Li Wenxi noticed her eyes drifting towards Keke and immediately asked with a smile, "Keke is super cute!"
"...Is it okay?" Li Yajun wanted to ask about the parasitic tree house, but was stopped by Li Wenxi's words.
But to be honest, she really wanted to touch this cute little panda.
The two people in front of her were completely different from what she had imagined. She had thought that people like the Explorers, who were active on the front lines of life and death, were all decisive and ruthless, like killers.
